Patient's question:
I have had quite a long time of bad breath, which is really bothering me. I think it should be due to constipation and bowel movements, basically once a day, sometimes not well-formed, and sometimes the smell is quite severe, while other times it's lighter. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Your bad breath is likely caused by constipation. It is not recommended to use bowel-cleansing teas, as they are generally and long-term use can easily disrupt the entire digestive system. You can regulate your digestive function through food, such as whole grains rich in dietary fiber, water, cereals, beans, seaweed, apples, yogurt, etc. Good oral hygiene remains the most important, brush your teeth twice a day and clean your dental floss once. For people with bad breath, in addition to understanding and treating the symptoms, they can use home remedies as supplementary treatments in daily life. Proper diet is necessary in daily eating habits to avoid foods.
